In the case of the smoke detectors, many people have favourably exchanged their traditional smoke alarm systems for either the Nest Protect or other smart device from the competition, but a large percent of the population would still prefer not to deal with an app or any other unneeded configurations and thankfully, there are lots of regular smoke detectors on the market to choose from. One of them is the First Alert P1010 Micro Smoke Alarm, which, while it has all the expected elements of the traditional smoke detector, it is rather unique from the design point of view yes, I know, First Alert again, but, in truth, there are not that many reliable options on the market right now. Furthermore, besides the transparent Silence / Test button positioned ion the side, there aren’t any other elements to break the minimalist design continuity. At first glance, you’d be tempted to simply position the smoke detector on a shelf and not bothering installing it on the wall or ceiling, but since you want it to detect the smoke as fast as possible, you should mount it on the ceiling and a bit further from the corners of the room it’s also ideal to keep it at least 15 feet away from a fuel burning heat source, so it won’t trigger those annoying false alarms. That being said, the installation process is simple and intuitive: all you have to do is remove the card from the bottom of the mounting bracket, attach the ring to the ceiling or wall using the fixing anchors they’re provided inside the package, fortunately and afterwards, simply rotate the alarm into place. The most popular types of sensors that are used to detect the smoke particles are the ionization sensors and the photoelectric sensors some manufacturers have developed their own proprietary sensors to detect more than one type of fires, such as the case of the Nest Protect with its Split Spectrum sensor.
